Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is one of the most widely researched forms of therapy and is effective for children dealing with anxiety, depression, behavioral issues, and more. At A Time To Play Therapy , we incorporate play elements into CBT sessions to create a therapeutic environment where children feel comfortable exploring their thoughts and emotions.

CBT Techniques We Use:

Cognitive Restructuring: We help children identify and challenge negative or distorted thinking patterns.

Behavioral Activation: By engaging in enjoyable activities, children learn to reduce avoidance behaviors and improve their mood.

Exposure Therapy: For children with phobias or anxiety, we use gradual exposure to feared situations to help them manage and reduce their anxiety over time.
